Sun, 10 Jul 2011 01:01:32 +0000thegnomedoor643381@https://en.forums.wordpress.com/I'm not excellent at customizing wordpress css, and I've spent the past hour trying to work out how to get a margin on my sidebar. I've tried just doing it the normal way, but just adding a margin to the div in style.css..

which did the opposite of what i wanted, and made the content go a further 10 px to the left. So I replaced it with -10px, which worked, but I then remember I only wanted the margin on the left after seeing that the search box was half hidden. So I replaced margin with 'margin-left'... which did nothing at all =/. I tried 'margin: 0 0 0 -10px', but that didn't work either.

I feel silly asking what seems like such a simple question. Would any one have any idea how to fix this? I'd really appreciate it!
